wow, thanks for the update, Alex.
I checked this patch on amd64 too, it works.
anyone please check-in this update?


BTW, I found some cases where xvkbd crashes or does not work.

(1) xvkbd crashes on X server on Mac OS X(X11.app, and XQuartz.app).
    ssh login to OpenBSD server from MacBook, and start xvkbd.
    xvkbd crashes right after the message;

      xvkbd: XTEST extension is not supported by the X server
      xvkbd: XSendEvent will be used instead

    Both X11.app and XQuartz.app don't have XTEST extension, and
    xvkbd detects that and emits the message above.
    Other X clients (e.g., xterm and emacs) works well.

(2) I prepared OpenBSD/amd64 current on VirtualBox on OS X.
    xvkbd (with no options) works normally.
    Next, I tried xvkbd with "-xsendevent" option, it does not work.
    No crash, but no keys are sent to the focused client.
    BTW, xenocara supports XTEST extension.

I think it should be fixed upstream, but put my observation here expecting
there's someone interested in this and investigate the problem.
